Business use case
This API let you retrieve the most recent summary data for a quote or price estimate.
Before using this API, you’ll need to initiate one of the following APIs:
- Guided Price Estimate API
- Safety Net Price Estimate API
Both of these APIs will generate a unique identifier (UUID) for the quote. If you plan to check the status of the quote later, you’ll need to store this identifier in your system. The UUID is then used as an input for the Get Summary Price Estimate API.
Technical overview – getPolicySummary
The Price Estimate – Get Summary API can be accessed using the GET method at getPolicySummary. It uses REST-based HTTP integration as transfer protocol. The examples show the basic steps for creating a safety net price estimate, using default settings where possible.
You can access the complete list of environment URLs on the getting started page.
Authentication
API requests are secured using HTTP basic authentication. To learn more about how we manage authentication, head to the security model section on the getting started page.
Field reference – request
There are no request fields for this API as it uses the GET HTTP method. The UUID is a mandatory URL parameter required to retrieve the quote summary.
Make sure you include the mandatory REST request headers that can be found on the getting started page.
